As we enter a new age of automation — where every company needs to be able to deliver better software, faster — our goal is to provide the tools you need to iterate faster, ship sooner and deliver more customer value. In October, we announced brand new products, Puppet Tasks™ and Puppet Discovery™, to give you greater control and end-to-end visibility over your software delivery. Join Eric Sorenson, Director of Product Management, on 7 December at 11:00 a.m. AEDT for an in-depth look at what’s new: Puppet Discovery is a new offering that lets you see everything you have in real time across your on-premises, cloud and container infrastructure, and know what you need to automate next. Puppet Tasks, a new family of offerings that encompass both Puppet Bolt™and Puppet Enterprise Task Management, makes it simple to automate ad hoc tasks, deploy one-off changes, and execute sequenced actions in an imperative way. With Puppet Pipelines, we’re uniting the entire software delivery lifecycle, to bring you a platform built for the enterprise, that integrates with a wide variety of tools and helps you avoid vendor lock-in.
